I was thinking to set up a server for my tracking system or inventory management system. and I would like to know is 6 cores or 4 cores enough for the bare minimum or should i get 8 cores or the 16 cores cpu because I don't want to buy some overkill server that just do relatively simple task?
What do you guys think?
Here is what i'll be doing for my server:
-NAS
-Website Hosting
-Inventory and Tracking System.
I'm also planning to set RAID Array for it too here is the 2 i'm considering:
- Raid 1+0
- Raid 6+1
- Raid 1
- Raid 6+1+0
And yes is there any recommendations for raid controller.
I would also need to consider the ram and mother:
